The Bracket vote is the theory that in the very early stages of a match, generally the first 5 to 10 minutes, a character who is heavily favored in the majority of prediction brackets is going to have an advantage over his opponent. The idea is that the people who stay up late to cast the opening votes are more likely to have a high-ranking bracket that they want to support, and so once that initial wave of voting dies off the underdog is likely to start performing better.

Early bracket voting generally becomes less of an issue the further into a Contest you get, since by then most brackets have been ruined by earlier mistakes and only a select few still have solid brackets that they really care about.
